(Information from Sally Mottram)

JAMES WAY 1795 -

James was the first child of George Way and Mary Hemberry/Hembrey, he was born at Huntspill, Somerset and was baptised 7th June 1795. (However, Sally now believes that the James Way listed below was born 1788, son of Daniel and Jane Way. I have left the link as it is for the moment, but will update with more information as it turns up)

James married Jayne Payne by special licence. The couple moved to Burnham on Sea where their second son Frederick was born. Jayne died not long after Frederick was born.
